MRI 1w/kg sequences Siemens Avanto FIT
I have recently been asked to build protocols for Spines and extremities that are 1 watt per kilogram SAR. In speaking with Applications at Siemens they inform me that I can only change certian parameters to help lower SAR but it will all be dependent upon each patient and which sequences are running. I need to present to our MRI QA commitiee if we can or if we cannot do 1w/kg SAR as we are determining if we can scan cochlear implants? Does anyone have any ideas or solutions?
 
 

Thank You
Will R.

While planning vertebral discs for axial cuts is there any way to align the slices perpendicularly on coronal plane? Currently I have to manually align them on the vertebral column which is tedious and sometimes erroneous.

I have worked on Siemens Avanto and there is option to select the slice to align perpendicular so that I only have to pay attention to one plane while in Toshiba the task is a bit more complicated. Though there is an option of aligning all slices perpendicularly but it does not work or may be I am doing something wrong.

STIR-TR
My understanding with Stir is to have longer TR and shorter TE than a normal T2 sequence. Ive also wondered this question and have not found a definite answer as I guess it could vary from manufacturer to manufacturer?

Im on a Siemens Avanto 1.5T, and typically our STIR sequence ranges from:

TR = 4000 - 10,000ms (I try not to go beyond 7,000)
TE = 20 - 40ms

...obviously you can adjust values for different outcomes depending what you are trying to identify.
